San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District

San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District is a public school district based in San Marcos, Texas (USA).

In addition to San Marcos, the district also serves the towns of Martindale, Reedville and parts of Maxwell, Texas. The district extends into small portions of Caldwell and Guadalupe counties. Currently, the district serves over 7,100 students.

San Marcos High School is home to the San Marcos Fightin' Rattlers. Since 1911, the San Marcos Rattlers have been competing in sports with teams from the Austin and San Antonio area. Today the Rattlers compete in the Texas 5A level, which they have been since 2002. The Rattlers have not missed the playoffs in football since 1998; they won district in 2000 and 2003 and went as far as the Regional Finals in 1999 and 2006. Starting in the fall of 2008, San Marcos will compete in the Class 4A level after dropping down from the 5A level. In 2004, San Marcos Consolidated ISD voters approved close to $123 million dollars in bonds. These bonds will pay for a new San Marcos High School that will be able to serve over 2,500 students, as of 2006 San Marcos High currently had a student population of 1990. Also with the bond money the SMCISD will build new elementary schools throughout the district. San Marcos High School will open in August 2007, and all the elementary schools in the district should be completed by 2008.
